A Fever In My Heart

                                                                   Ecclesiastes 7:9,
                                                                    Ephesians 4: 26
                Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry; for anger rest in the bosom of fools. 
                Be ye angry, and sin not; let not the sun go down upon your wrath.

We woke up this morning to a very warm bedroom!  Then we took note that our air-conditioning was no longer working properly and the heat was rising.  The blessings are that we don't have to pay the cost of the repairs and we have a second air-conditioner that steps in and makes up for the non-functioning unit.  Just a call away was our wonderful repairman and his assessment was a faulty wire that was damaged in a recent storm.  The unit is now up and running properly again and it's getting cooler as we speak!

We can wake up in the morning and find that our temperature has risen!  We are still angry with that someone for hurting us.  Our hearts are no longer working properly and our wires were damaged by a storm of words that were recently spoken.  Our Savior is just a call away and He has already paid the price for forgiveness and restoration in our relationships.  At any moment our heart can be up and running properly again and our  temperature will be cooling off as we listen to and speak His words! 


                                                   Infection causes a fever in the body.
                                                    Anger causes a fever in the heart.   

                                                                    Morning Prayer

Dear Lord,
    You are just a call away for healing in our hearts!  Thank you that You paid the price for our restoration with You and with others.  May we never wake-up to find a fever in our hearts.  Amen
